What it reported doing in 2024

The ywca richmond operates the sprout school, a full-day, year-round early childhood education and childcare program for children 2 months to five years old. With our growth we can provide high quality early education and dependable childcare for approximately 300 children across five sprout schools in the richmond region. The five sprout school locations include: sprout at bainbridge; sprout at children's museum; sprout in fulton; sprout at second presbyterian; sprout at st. Andrews.the sprout school emphasizes child-directed, experiential learning within a relationship-driven environment. Families are served through a mixed-income model in which 50% of families pay tuition and 50% come from economically underprivileged backgrounds who receive partial or full scholarships. This model ensures an inclusive, diverse, and immersive experience for children of all backgrounds.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 94% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
